OPINION

MATHIAS, Judge.

A.M. was adjudicated a delinquent child in Marion Superior Court for carrying a handgun without a license, a Class A misdemeanor if committed by an adult. A.M. appeals and argues that the juvenile court abused its discretion when it admitted the handgun into evidence. Concluding that the handgun was properly admitted because the pat-down search which led to its discovery was not conducted in violation of the Fourth Amendment and Article I, Section 11 of the Indiana Constitution, we affirm.
